Suicide Story Calling for Hope and Help



Expression of life with smiles and cheers
The loud laughter’s for such silly jokes
Confidently standing beyond arrogance
False countenance nonchalantly reticence

As I pulled over the mask to show different me
So fake and so conflicting to nonexistent inner glee
Not with intentions to cheat everyone around
But disguising with pretense to one thyself

Murky gorge of reality without an escape
As my skull becomes evil’s warehouse
It is nothing but a curse being titled strong
For the actual struggle hidden all along

Swinging precarious between hope and surrender
Hiding tears and fears battling scary bearers
Consummating the artists within in disguise
Desponding alive in growing stronger 

Unable to eat, sleep, travel or wander
Trying to slip into the little dodging slumber
Absolute frames of absurd thoughts derider

Hugging the lifeless pillow to cry aloud
Of falling into the valley deep into the grounds
Running behind the leaving train
Waking up with a jerk and disdain

Succumbing to the loneliness of the chest
Sweating unusual than on a wilder trek
Where is my inner strength disappear
And the ardent faith ruled over by devils

Cries in cowers laid to rest in corner
The provocation to die chanting over life
Darkness and death looking alluring
Life be uphill struggle and non-fetching

Scared of another day and survival
Everything looked repulse and pointless
Hearing my fore-fathers calling me to the shore
Another life, another time, welcoming to meet

Where is the hope that made life everything?
Heartache, emptiness of the inner soul
Lost merry, life easy, trading my nothing
The curtains are ready to be brought down

The drama of life is ready to sure end
Free from the masks of public appearance
No more delving in pity of others around
Time to put an end to the corrosion of mind

Beyond the layers of wisdom thick to grind
Depression is never seen till it’s too late
Death can seem to be the only solace

Finding the Story of Suicide around,
Look again, think and stop by for a second
Give them a hug, hope and helping hand!
That moment, may bring them back to life again!

My Blessed Sleep !


The thoughts smirk to run haphazard
Unrecognized worries crawl and groove
Winces my sleep that takes to its heels
The pride of the day shatters to disdain

Trying to hold things that go unaware
Capturing millions dreams not letting sleep
Her hare on the marrow sounds like nightmare
Making me toss in the bed all night along

Hopelessness is not my state of mind
Hope, solace, peace, pain all in grind
Staring into the darkness of the soul
Looking for the sunlight in the roof hole

 Brazen tears rolling down on my cheeks
Thinking beyond like the techy geeks
Not a moment to wink and ensue sleep
Words unspoken and tasks still not done

Restlessness looking towards in leap
Tormenting my heart as it inner bleeds
As sleep refuses to usher its blessings
The demand with contrasting short supply
Closing eyes and waiting for the god’s reply

To treasure the most cherished sleep
That adjourns my life and refuses to reap
As the stars and night birds venture out
The moon dashingly hides behind the clouds
Letting the lovers explore the nocturnal beauties

I stay wide awake looking into the still night
As mind runs behind the poetic masterpiece
I look into the mass wondrous black canopy
And the trees that try to sing my lullaby

Don’t know when I slipped into the silent night
Woke up with warmth, love and tender might!

Frozen Moment for a Friend


She was with me, as we raised our girls
We spoke zillion times on their dreams
Suddenly, reality etched in my head
Heart failing on facts refuse to be dead

The summer day haunts like no other
As like a fallen rose she did disappear
A good friend, taken too soon and rude
To a more peaceful and final God’s abode

Missed did I her final view and funeral too
But her happy words linger in my heart for ever
The truth is strong and refuses to go away
The gory sculpture of truth and destiny 

Memory makes my tears roll in silence gratitude
For her friendship that gave me more meaning
Never dreamt or thought she would go mute
It takes me time and again to digest the truth

Moments freeze as if the clock stopped to tick
Days and dreams still move on, nothing to abate
I close my eyes in silence, paying my silent tribute!
Thanking God, for the moments shared!



Lost a dear friend, Vidhya Ramesh to a sudden heart attack on 29 May 2016.   In her memory.....
